> How am I to know how technically mature the distribution is if the last release is labeled April 2008 in numbers?
Ubuntu contains thousands of software packages. What single version string can convey all the details of their maturity or immaturity? Everything is going to have greater or lesser degrees of polish and maturity, and it's not going to be evenly increasing across the distribution, or even at the same rate.
